Description:

Part 9 Eating disorders affect five million people in the U.S., and more than 10% of those diagnosed with anorexia nervosa will die from the disease. Seeking to put a human face on these sobering statistics, acclaimed photographer Lauren Greenfield went inside a Florida treatment center to tell the stories of four women who are literally dying to be thin. The devastating HBO documentary THIN reveals what she found there - and explores the issues underlying their illness.

I was sorry for Polly, she is a brilliant and funny person, but the ED gets the worst out of her..the Renfrew is an institute with RULES in roder to support the patients' recovery. She broke them not once, not twice...so she had to go. (I don't understand how a tattoo affects all this, though...)

As a child who was raised with the twelve steps, my mother being a recovering alcoholic, I see major manipulation on Polly's side. Her mother needs to wake up and instead of blaming those doctos and PROFESSIONALS point the finger at her own ADULT child. Polly is the one who screwed up. She has no one to blame but herself. It's no wonder why she is so sick, listen to her mother.
